During the quick setup I made a mistake.
I use another domain for testing because of the php setting and now I cannot reach my test site because the domain is not the testsite domain.
How can I undo this mistake? can I add the domain in the database?

I can of course help you, but I am not sure where you made the mistake. So, I'll give you two replies. If you're talking about the Allowed Domains, use these instructions. If you are talking about the .htaccess file, use these instructions instead.

Even with no htaccess I get the message :The domain you are using to access this site is not allowed. This site can only be accessed through the domain names bethelpinksterkerk-groningen.nl, www.bethelpinksterkerk-groningen.nl.

In my previous reply I said this:

If you're talking about the Allowed Domains, use these instructions.

You confirmed this is what you are talking about. Therefore, this is the link you want.

Once you have access to your site by following the instructions in this link go to Configure WAF and change the Allowed Domains.

Then continue following the instructions to re-enable the Admin Tools plugin.

I have tried that but I get the same page. I cannot reach the administrator page with that url.

Since it is not in .htaccess where is this domain information stored..

So, let me get this straight. You have renamed the plugin/system/admintools/services/provider.php file as per the instructions, but you are still being blocked by the Allowed Domains feature which is implemented by the plugin you just disabled and cannot run? Something sounds wrong here. Either your problem does not come from Admin Tools, or you didn't actually follow the instructions on that page.
